Saffron

We have also the most precious and valued cultural spice of our planet in our delivery program. The saffron crop starts in autumn. The purple striped flowers are collected in the early morning. The flowers contain three crimson red stigmas. The collector pulls out the perigynous of the blossoming flower manually, from which saffron, the spice, is extracted. Over 170.000 blooms are necessary in order to produce a single kilogram of the precious spice; this is the reason for its high price.

We have saffron in three forms, filament, powder and the extract. For our powder we use the best raw materials only. Our manufacturing facility operates under quality control standards to produce superior quality.

We offer a wide range of saffron filament and powder in different packages like boxes, envelopes, sachets etc. and sizes from 0.1 to 1.000 gr. We also offer the possibility of devising a packaging according to the specific demands of our customers. You will then be able to choose the design and size of the product package.

Dried Fruits

Drying is one of the oldest and gentlest methods of preserving fruit. Dried fruit and nuts prove themselves as valuable resources for minerals, enzymes and important vitamins.

Besides offering the classic dried fruits and nuts like apricots, figs, almonds and pistachios we process exotic dehydrated fruits like melons, kiwis and pomegranates - all without any additives.

We have a short list of dried fruits and therefore are highly specialized and very familiar with problems like mycotoxin, microbiology or pesticide residues. We are able to be in control of these problems right from the beginning. From cultivation to harvesting and processing our constant, careful checks guarantee products which fulfil all current regulations.

We deliver dried fruit in different forms: as whole but also split or chopped. The goods are packed in cartons with a protective polyethylene lining. Other packages sizes and forms are possible upon request.
